The Cowboys entered Sunday night’s season opener against the Giants looking to make a statement against their bitter rivals. Instead, they looked like the same old franchise that can’t get out of its way in big moments and now seem destined to have another disappointing year in which they don’t come close to living up to their own high expectations.
Dallas’s defense was an embarrassment all night long. It allowed Jaxson Dart to throw for three easy touchdowns and 230 yards with zero interceptions. Cam Skattebo ran for 81 yards and a touchdown and New York was able to make a statement of its own with a 28–20 win in John Harbaugh’s debut at MetLife Stadium.
